Sullivan’s Sunderland warning

David Sullivan explained to ClaretandHugh a few days ago that so long as we are scoring goals we will win a lot of games and he’s not wrong of course.

It’s as close as David will get to making any predictions as to how things will work out over the long haul but there’s no question  he’s enjoying the football the team is serving up.

However, to reach a short term target of four points from the Norwich and Sunderland games we now need three at Sunderland at the weekend.

And he warns against overconfidence as we go to Sunderland at the weekend telling the official site: “We saw what happened with Chelsea when only two late goals got them a point at Newcastle. “I’m sure Chelsea will have gone there thinking they would win comfortably and that certainly was not the case.”

He’s right to be cautious because at some stage the Black Cats are likely to hit a run of form although thus far this season they have looked a very poor side who make plenty of mistakes as demonstrated in their three goal drubbing at Old Trafford on Saturday.

However, with a week’s rest behind the lads, rather than three days following the Leicester City defeat we will be in top shape again and a fourth away win is on the agenda.
